229459 - prompt window for identification appears when the cursor is over a determined kind of Bookmarks

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 133755

(Firefox :: Bookmarks & History, defect)

Description

[tex]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.5) Gecko/20031007 Firebird/0.7
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.5) Gecko/20031007 Firebird/0.7

If a page like phpMyAdmin (requiring an identification) is in the Bookmarks,
when, at the first time after the Firebird's launch, the mouse cursor just pass
over this bookmark the identification window (named "prompt") appears. It's just
uncomfortable "bug". I think it's because Firebird try to search for this
bookmark's icon.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Add a phpMyAdmin-like page in your Bookmarks (so a page requiring an
identification) ;
2.Restart Firebird ;
3.Just pass over this bookmark with the mouse cursor.

Actual Results:  
The identification window (named "prompt") appears.

Expected Results:  
Mozilla Firebird should have not showed this identification window because the
user won't display it.

Does the page you speak of have a favicon (site icon)?

Comment 2

[tex]

Yes, it has a favicon (site icon). Excuse me, I'd forgotten to write it in the
bug report, sorry.

Comment 3

No worries, it's not really something you'd think would be the problem. But in
this case, Moz is trying to get the favicon, and that's what causes the log-in
to show up.
